CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
Don't like Firefox's close button on each tab? Miss the multiple rows of tabs when they exceed the width of your screen? This kick-butt Firefox extension makes tabbed browsing even better than it already is. Tab Mix Plus can change those settings and almost everything else associated with tabs. Use your scroll wheel to browse tabs, or control tab switching via mouse gestures. You can specify where Web pages will open--in the background or the foreground, in a new tab or the current one--based on how they were created: by clicking a link, typing an address, or using the search bar.
You can duplicate a tab, protect it from closing, or merge tabs from several windows. We also like the option that prevents those annoying blank tabs when you download files. Another useful feature is a session manager that restores tabs that were open the last time the browser shut down. We'd like to see an option to view tabs as thumbnails, but nevertheless there's something here for every Firefox user--don't browse without it.

Version: Tab Mix Plus 0.3.7.081003
"Amazing, glad to see it again."
Pros: I've been using it for ages, it's become the first add-on I download. It's one of those things that should be built right into Firefox. I can't live with any other browser now simply due to the absence of Tab Mix Plus features.
Cons: Nothing at all.

"If You Like To Control Your Tabs, This Is A Must"
Pros: This add-on gives you so much control over your tabs. It is a big upgrade over just using the Firefox tabs, as is. This may be the best add-on.
Cons: None at all, except that I hope that these tab features are integrated in the new versions of Firefox..
Summary: Before using Tab Mix Plus, I used a browser called The World Browser because it had tabs that were so controllable by the user; they were very user-friendly. I switched to Firefox, when I found, installed and tailored this add-on to my specific need... read more >>

"Should be pre-installed with FF"
Pros: I love being able to undo close tabs, lock tabs, protect tabs, etc. Very handy extension.
Cons: When you delete browsing history and check to delete Tab Mix browsing sessions, it gives a popup warning, no way to stop that from coming up that I've seen yet.

Version: Tab Mix Plus 0.3.7.081003
Pros: it is a great addon that enhances the tabbed browsing spectacularly...
Cons: not only for this addon --- in general the more extensions you add, the more the firefox consumes system resources.... so as a tip --- only use addons that gives benefit to you too much....
Summary: excellent addon !....
